Sandwich Loaf / Pain de Mie Recipe - The Bread Kitchen

Pain de Mie is a soft, very slightly sweet bread with little crust that is ideal for sandwiches or toast. It is similar to Pullman or sandwich loaves. Written recipe at www.thebreadkit...

[@underbaked8689]

I made this bread yesterday as an experiment to see if this made a decent loaf for toast! You see that I have found that homemade bread does not make good toast (the crust usually burns whilst the crumb only slightly colours and the texture is grim). However this recipe is the answer to my prayers - as the toast it makes is nothing less than magnificent! Okay, I altered the recipe slightly by substituting 20% of the white flour for stoneground wholemeal flour. It also makes a great sandwich! The Pullman tin I used was supplied by 'Lakeland' (in the UK) and measures 21.1cm in length. For those really long Pullman tins I would think you would have to double the ingredients, at least! Thanks very much Titli as I have been baking bread for some 50 years and this is the only recipe that does produce fantastic toast!

[@agnesdeque]

IMPORTANT MESSAGE !!! It's for you guys ,please try this recipe .I cooked it and I have right now a fantastic amazing and absolutely delicious bread !!!!! Oh I forgot ,thanks Titli you're the best ...

[@Glitch_Ash]

I rely on your recipes quite a bit as they never let me down, we have four children with age range from 7 month to 5 years old, I make everything myself even down to ketchup. I think it is so important to know what you are feeding your family and as well there is something so satisfying about watching everyone happy and enjoying the food you have made. Anyway just wanted to say thank you you are quite an inspiration to me :)

[@annika4942]

You are the ultimate woman!

[@user-cd3sx8sw3r]

You are my teacher. I practice to bake breads from many of your programs. It's easy to understand. This is my second year that I'm still studying on how to bake breads and loaves, and still watching your programs . I wish you on this new year 2021 to have good lives and be strong .!!!!

[@MackerelCat]

I know you don’t really read youtube comments anymore, but on the off chance you do, thanks a million Titli for another great recipe.

[@SteaphanMacRisnidh]

When I use the oven to make oatcakes they need about 50 minutes at 150 degrees, and this is the first bread recipe I've found where the bread can go in at the same temperature and thus, at the same time. You've saved me on electricity! Many thanks for these great bread recipes. I've always wondered how English crumpets and muffins were made, and thanks to your site and very clearly explained videos, I will be giving them a go too.

[@wildheart5]

Ah, so that's how one makes the perfect loaf of bread for tea sandwiches! Wonderful!

[@Nocturne22]

Bread Goddess Titli strikes again with another fabulous recipe!

[@dinasawlani]

So sad that Titli hasn't renewed her website hosting, wasn't able to connect today, the domain is available. Titli hope you are safe and well. You are greatly missed. Please keep your channels up.

[@zgadams1981]

Hi, Titli. The Kneady Homesteader sent me to your channel. Love this video. I will be purchasing a Pullman pan so that I can make this. Thanks a bunch.

[@parthajaya34]

Hi Titli. Thanks for a nice soft sandwich bread. Came out very well.

[@kathrynschenk7432]

We received a pan for Christmas and will try your recipe shortly. Our pan is considerably larger, so we'll probably need to double the recipe. Many thanks! -- Allan

[@stacyfletcher7767]

THANK YOU for posting a recipe using the REGULAR 9" Pullman pan.. EVERYONE else uses the huge 13 " size and it's too much for one or 2 PEOPLE to use up quickly enough. I am excited about trying your recipe, but will use a stand mixer, (arthritic hands can't handle 5 mins plus of working the dough. I am figuring on about 4-5 min of neading w/dough hook..let me know if you have any other timing that you suggest .

[@ilovstodance]

that bread looked lovely I also have pullman loaf pan larger the the one you have love the loaf shaped so nicley going to try your recipe using potatoe starch

[@shawhit3462]

Wow, I have to find one of these bread pans. I want to try this. Thanks Titli.

[@mariapinto8003]

Tks for the recipe I will try it I'm from Bombay n watch all your videos simple n well explained

[@catherinedavid3662]

I am in the process of making this loaf but sadly it is not rising as it should. I’ve followed recipe to the letter except for, I substituted corn flour for the potato flour. This could be the reason why as I noticed another subscriber had the same problem using substitute cornflower. Anyway, I’ll not be beaten and I’ve ordered some potato starch from Amazon, couldn’t get it locally, so I’ll let you know results when I do. Many thanks for recipe. 👍

[@jensonxd5110]

I love these loafs !

[@netogreat7111]

She so lovely and perfect for her best for what shes doing

[@luzflorida]

[@afabcloseouts]

Great recipe, great bread , thanks for a winner!!!

[@eyeonart6865]

king authur flour website has recipes for the 9x4 pullman pan that does not use potatoe starch. 3 different recipes.

[@BakingWithElliott]

Trying this soon!

[@aamakonepalieasyfood761]

Titli where are you nowadays? Missing you a lot. Why don't you come up with more new recipes?😍😊

[@Squeebert85]

Yum! Looks so tasty!! I love your videos!!

[@chauanhphan1947]

Thank you Titli Nahah !!!!! 👍👍👍👍👍

[@teresabradley1509]

Love your channel!!!

[@royksk]

Called a pullman loaf/tin because the originals were designed to fit 4 at a time into the Pullman train's oven so that passengers had fresh bread each day of the journey. The originals were much longer

[@okonamaroko9419]

Why would anyone cut off the crust? It's the best bit!

[@scoutthespaniel978]

okonamaroko amen!!!!

[@gabriellacatalini1220]

Bonjour! Love the French name... Crumb bread, which is accurate, no crust, just crumb... Perfect for toast! Could I try this with wholeweat flour? In any case, thank you, I love you recipes, and especially enjoy seeing you perform them!

[@TheBreadKitchen]

Fen Cat You can try it with any bread flour!

[@rioko1721]

hi Madam thank you this is very helpful God bless

[@BeastMortThe]

6 yrs since this channel has uploaded a video... what are the odds I get a reply? If using a Pullman 13 inch x 4 inch x 4 inch... would I just double the recipe?

[@andrew55944]

Hey titli, have you ever made the italian sweet bread called "maritozzo"? It's just splendid for breakfast with butter and coffee!

[@markluke8447]

What size pan is this recipe for? Looks delicious, thank you for all your informative videos.

[@kaksri24982506]

จะทดลองทำดูขอบคุณค่ะ

[@unboxtrolls2454]

This looks great, would you be able to adjust and share the recipe for a 13" pullman? Thanks

[@ARVINDKRGARG]

please tell us it is necessary to mix potato starch?

[@samtaheer7009]

Thanx for nice recipe Wat can I use instead of potato starch?

[@DriverZero512]

I would think instant mashed potato flakes could substitute. I've seen other pain de mie recipes using this ingredient.

[@colpugno7]

Nice recipe. Would like to try but sadly i don't have oven :(

[@shadman6167]

Hi, I tried your recipe with the exact measurements but for some reason after one hour in the pullman loaf pan, the dough did not rise all the way to the top. It reached 70% of the tin height. I sticked to the recipe but substituted potato starch with corn starch. What causes it not to rise enough ? Anyways, I covered it and decided to bake it but after 30 min it didn't rise all the way to hit the cover. It stayed at 70% of the tin height. Your help is appreciated.

[@rupalikothari9600]

I m new plz. Let me know dear...CN I skip potato starch....reply plz

[@sharnndurning7952]

Can this be frozen ? 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@Oddrick]

What does the milk powder do? I don't think I've seen you use it in a bread recipe before.

[@TheBreadKitchen]

Oddrick It alters the flavour. Makes it more... milky :-)

[@joemug4079]

What is your opinion of bread machines? Maybe a question for a new video.

[@agnesdeque]

Doux et moelleux , comme toi Titli !

[@agnesdeque]

Salut Titli ! Ca fait deux ou trois fois que j'ai un problème avec mon pain de mie . Impossible de retirer le couvercle après cuisson et quand j'y arrive trèès difficilement il y a comme un vide au milieu sur qques centimètres en dessous de la croûte ! Qu'en penses tu ?

[@scotland1988ful]

Hi there, I’m completely new to making bread dough, and a new sub . Ok my question, do I absolutely need milk powder, or is there a sub I can use. If not then looks like A visit to the local store... thanks Scottishlass

[@MyJaneF]

You are such a lovely lady. Love your videos😍

[@marisabelzavalunova4881]

Where did you the loaf pan? It's very cute, I also want to buy one

[@jagapatto]

Great channel and video! Salted or un-salted butter?

[@phuonghoangthi1275]

Can i use oil instead of butter? How many ml? How many ml of water and milk is it?

[@eyeonart6865]

Is your pullman pan the 9x4 pan? That is what I need for my toaster oven.

[@EvanC0912]

is this the same as the regular bread loaf in plastic bags sold in supermarkets?

[@TheBreadKitchen]

EC912 If the loaf is square you can be sure it's been made by this method :-)

[@EvanC0912]

aah.... I didn't know that this kind of bread actually has a name. haha

[@marisabelzavalunova4881]

If I don't have milk powder, what can I replace it with?

[@jagtar1649]

Hi titli, in Hindi(India's national language), titli refers to a butterfly 😁

[@leelin5150]

Hi mam, can i use the instant yeast instead od the dried one?

[@forthelovesoffood6100]

Thats looks yummy.can u please tell me the substitute of potato starch ? thanks

[@TheBreadKitchen]

saba fatima It makes the bread softer but you could leave it out.

[@Eva1234878]

Hi hon , can you please let me know what else I can use instead of potato starch ? I can't find it here in Greece,,, Thank you !

[@TheBreadKitchen]

__Ευα__ Just leave it out.

[@melissastevens3264]

Is whole wheat pastry flour suitable for bread making? It is cheaper in bulk than whole wheat ap flour at my natural foods store.

[@TheBreadKitchen]

Melissa Stevens Pastry flour usually doesn't have a high enough protein content ( = gluten) to make decent bread.

[@saraperez5137]

Can you tell me please,if i can use also normal flour? Or has to be bread flour? Thanks

[@TheBreadKitchen]

Sara Perez It has to be AP or bread flour otherwise there is not enough gluten in the flour to give good texture.

[@bolbiitp7850]

how can you make this in chocolate flavor???

[@besuperhappynow]

Bolbi - Lloyd just sprinkle chocolate chips a la salt bae!

[@paolo5807]

can you use 100% wholemeal or a 50/50 blend of wholmeal and white flour? If so how much more liquid should you add?

[@TheBreadKitchen]

thefilibrit N If you use 100% wholemeal add 10% more water.

[@paolo5807]

***** hi thanks. I tried it yesterday but something went wrong. It looked like it collapsed when I got it out of the oven even though I rose it to the top of the tin. Should I have left it rise longer?

[@TheBreadKitchen]

One thing I've learned about this recipe recently. If the lid touches the dough while you are putting the top on it can make the bread sink a little in the middle. What I'm very careful to do is make sure it has not yet risen above the edge of the tin before putting the lid on. I then leave it to rise further with the lid on. For 100% wholemeal it may be worth allowing it to rise for a further 40 minutes after putting the lid on.

[@thundercloud47]

Please, would like to ask the dimensions of your Pain de Mie pans, as the most reasonable pans I found for sale in the USA were 9"x4"x4" and 13"x4"x4", I ask so can somehow figure how to adapt the recipe to the differing sizes. Our son doesn't care for the crust on breads, so would like to give this recipe and pan a try. Thank you kindly, for your time. Gretchen

[@TheBreadKitchen]

thundercloud47 The size of my pain de mie tin is given on my website :-)www.thebreadkitchen.com/recipes/pain-de-mie-recipe/

[@thundercloud47]

***** Thank You, I sure do appreciate your response. When I jot down any of your recipes, often times I'll pause the video, and write ingredients and instructions as I go, rather than go to your web site. This is a subtle reminder I should go view your written recipe as well. Again, thank you. Gretchen

[@TheBreadKitchen]

thundercloud47 There are often additional notes on the written versions of my recipes :-)

[@thundercloud47]

*****, Thank you for the reminder of your additional notes. Had I not checked out this recipe on your site, would have never known this recipe can also be made using standard bread pans. Multi-purpose recipes are a prize. :) You are one accomplished lady and I appreciate the knowledge you share on KZbin. Gretchen

[@nancyrahif8442]

This looks fantastic. Can I use a regular tin and cover it with a piece of aluminum foil? Will that work?

[@TheBreadKitchen]

Nana Raef The bread will push the foil up. You could try tying it tightly with string.

[@CattleRancher863]

Nana Raef Howdy Nana, I used a small cookie sheet and put it on top and added an antique cast iron clothes iron to hold it down. It worked mighty fine. Hope this helps.

[@aryaaml]

Can you please make plum cake Plssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss😊😊😊😊😊😊😘😘😘

[@likleshpurgass2820]

Can we use corn starch instead of potato starch?

[@TheBreadKitchen]

I guess you could.

[@teeroosam6781]

The Bread Kitchen I will.Thanx

[@derekwarren4477]

Hi Titli I would like to made your sandwich loaf but unfortunately I cannot find a Pullman tin in the size you recommend, could you point me in the right direction to where I could buy one.. Regarding the racist abuse you have been receiving please disregard them these vile remarks are coming from uneducated sick No Marks who's only pleasure is to hide behind closed curtains in a darkened room trying to stop anyone who is trying to give knowledge to others.. Hutch

[@jovan5397]

Its flat titli...didnt rise to the top of the tin

[@dotter8]

Google Translate (roughly) translates it as "crumb bread."

[@zien6660]

my bread turned out pale :( almost white
